Search for a Job or Internship

You’re a Spider–which means you’re talented and adept at managing projects. Searching for your next opportunity is not as complex as a course at UR (!), but it’s just complicated enough that you’ll want to set up a strategy and stay organized.

  • Do you know what you’re searching for and why? Scanning lots of roles and industries can be super helpful when you’re exploring options or discovering possibilities. But an active search (when you’ll actually submit applications) will be most effective when you’ve identified a specific type of role and likely a type of field or industry.
  • What’s your timeline? And how will you balance making connections to expand your network and submitting applications?

Whether you’re preparing for your first search or building on past success, this area of our virtual center provides resources and tools to help you achieve success. YoUR step-by-step search guide will walk you through the process, and this page includes other carefully curated resources. Want even more? Check out the Search and Apply section of the Spider Prompt Library on our AI for Career Readiness Page.
